All 3-5 year old children enrolled at BJ’s Childcare are eligible for up to 20 Hours FREE ECE.

This is regardless of family income, immigration status or any other reason.

Eligibility starts when a child turns 3 and ends when they start attending school. As children must be enrolled in school by their 6th birthday, the last day that can be claimed as 20 Hours ECE is the day before a child’s 6th birthday.

Parents need to have signed the 20 Hours ECE attestation on their child’s enrolment form before it can be claimed. 20 Hours ECE can only be claimed from the day a parent has completed and signed the attestation. Parents choose how they allocate 20 Hours ECE for their child, up to the maximum of 6 hours per day and 20 hours per week.
